Someone is supposed to host it later and post it on the thread later. Im waiting too.

I'll be home in 30 mind and will also post instructions to install it using a pc
 
OK....I bit...

So far I can send/receive mms. Only been about 10 minutes, though. But before, it only took a couple of minutes before they locked me out again.

The only thing I see that's different about this is putting that info in all the fields on the carrier settings. Also, we have a family plan, with 2 iphones and 2 'regular' phones. We had the unlimited family messaging checked already. So I removed it, saved the settings and then re-added it again. Don't know if that makes a difference.

I'm expecting it to shut me out again.....we'll see. I'll report back in an hour or so...

Please do, because I haven't see one of these "methods" that's been permanent.

Here is an interesting little situation... I just tried to reply to a text and it gets about 95% thru and fails... I tried sending a text.. same thing.. I have not done any of the mods or updates. I have a 3Gs. I keep getting the little red exclamation point. I called AT&T and the said to be "Please be patient we are prepairing for a magor update to go out this evening." I asked what it was and she said "to be honest, they gave me this card to read about an hour ago and you are the first person who called."

I wonder if this is crap...

Im in the DC metro area
 
Can someone post the update files for windows? I believe all those are for mac, but i'm kinda a rookie at this so don't hate haha.

major update of SMS?
 
I just checked both those files and they should be good. One is for windows and the other for Mac.
 
I dont know the CSR said that she didnt know anything other than what she told me. She did look at the account and tole me everything was set up properly. I asked her about MMS and she sighed and repeated that she didnt know anything other than what she told me. My SMS is working again though... I did a power down and restart but have not gotten the little camera icon or the option for MMS in Settings

You are aware that SMS and MMS utilize the same application, right?

This is exciting. Unless this guy is full of it I can't imagine why a CSR would lie about something like this.

Powering off...

Edit: Holy geez I had already forgotten how fast the 3GS starts up. Awesome....

Edit2: Drats. No change to the messages app.

YES, I am aware. My point was is this only something to make SMS work better. I have a feeling it's not the MMS Holy Grail.
